Dear ladies and gentlemen

I have to generate a X-bench file for a translation done in Trados. I never did it before. How should I proceed?
I use Trados 2017 and 2019.

Thank you.

Lorenzo

In Xbench, go Project > New. Then make sure the "Files" tab is open in the dialog (it should be), and drag-and-drop the SDLXLIFF file into it. Xbench will ask you to confirm the file type ("Trados Studio File"), so just click OK and OK again. Then, in Xbench, go Tools > Check Ongoing Translation. It should show you a list of all things it discovered. Then, in Xbench, go Tools > Export QA Results, and select Excel in the file type.

Then, look in the Excel file and fix the issues... See more

Then, look in the Excel file and fix the issues in Trados. Then redo these steps to create a new QA report (rinse and repeat). Once you're certain you fixed all issues, create a final QA report and send it to your client saying "they're all false positives".

(If you're working on a Trados project and not just a single file, the SDLXLIFF file is located in a folder with the target language code, which is a subfolder of the project's project folder.)

Hi, I get this error, what should I do?
¨there are no glossaries defined as ongoing translation or they have no segments¨
